Now, I haven't seen the page in question yet, but in 99% of the situations, if 
you want a space, then you use <P>, not <BR>. <BR> is for Line Break. ie; in the
middle of a paragraph you want to start on the next line, you use <BR> which 
doesn't leave a space. If you're suggesting use multiple <BR>'s ... *shudder in
horror*

carriage returns & multiple spaces are displayed. Usually used to quote text 
files & such, can also be used as a poor man's columns & other nasty tricks. ^_^

OK, now I've looked at the page. ^_^
headings, instead of:
  <P><H1><CENTER><EM>WELCOME</EM></CENTER></H1></BR></P>
Use:
  <H1 ALIGN=CENTER>Welcome</H1>

Most headings are already bold or emphasised, and paragraph spaces are 
automatically put around them, so you don't need that.
